SUMMARY

Ernie Hudson has surprised the fans worldwide with his incredibly young look and charming physique.
The fans are intrigued how he looks younger even after being older than most of his OG co-stars and action legends.
Before his worldwide popularity, the actor was initially paid less and removed from the posters of the 1984’s Ghostbusters.

Ernie Hudson has made a huge name for his role as Winston Zeddemore in the Ghostbusters franchise.

He has appeared in all the movies of the franchise since it started in 1984. Recently, he raised chatter on the internet after being spotted in London.

Fans worldwide can’t believe that the actor is 78 years old as he looks younger than most popular Hollywood actors.

The latest Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire has opened in the theaters with mixed reviews from critics. Even though Rotten Tomatoes suggests that the audience reception for the movie had been decent, the topic that raised more internet buzz was Ernie Hudson‘s look.

Recently when Ernie Hudson was spotted in London (via The Sun), he looked very young for his age and sported an incredible physique. Very few actors in Hollywood had been able to maintain their good looks like Hudson.

He did not look very different from his 30s when he first appeared in the supernatural comedy franchise. The father-to-4’s physique can even rival action legend Sylvester Stallone who also sports a jacked and charming body at 77.

While attending the UK screening of Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, Ernie Hudson sported tight jeans along with a black turtleneck accompanied by a leather jacket and a pair of leather shoes.

Although the Leviathan actor has made a great name now, he was initially not treated very well on the set of the first Ghostbusters film.

Ernie Hudson opened up to The Independent that not only did he receive a lower salary than his co-stars but he was also removed from the poster of the film.

Initially, the makers wanted to cast Eddie Murphy in the role but when the actor turned it down, the role was passed on to Hudson and sadly, it was also reduced significantly.

The fans go mad over Ernie Hudson’s evergreen look

Since the pictures of Ernie Hudson have taken over the internet, the fans have gone mad over them and filled the internet with praise.

The fans are mostly comparing him to several actors of his age or younger who could not manage to handle aging so well. On the other hand, some fans have claimed that it needs a well-disciplined lifestyle to sport such a physique.

Here are some of the reactions collected by us on X.

Besides portraying Winston Zeddemore in the four primary films of the Ghostbusters franchise, Ernie Hudson also portrayed a different role in the 2016 female-led reboot film.

The Law & Order actor starred alongside both his OG co-stars as well as the new additions of Paul Rudd, Finn Wolfhard, and Mckenna Grace, who joined the franchise in 2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife.

The first two Ghostbusters films can be streamed on Hulu while Ghostbusters: Afterlife can be rented on Apple TV+.
